    @Hanimani remotely all you can do is restart.

    but you could use a browser on your pc to the mm system to do all that development

      @Hanimani As sdetweil suggested you can access the page of MagicMirror in your browser to do development. The only problem with this approach is that there are multiple instances of the page. This can cause some modules to behave strange (like sending notifications twice, etc.).

      As an alternative you can enable VNC on the MagicMirror machine and connect to it remotely. You than can hit CTRL+R and access the Web development tools.

            @Hanimani the easy solution is to use the browser on the system you are on.
            when you get it right, restart mm where it is running

            config.js

            address:"0.0.0.0",  // listen for connections on all network interfaces
            ipWhitelist:[], // dont restrict source systems wanting to access mm
            

            if you are using windows as your keyboard system, you can use winscp or bitvise ssh clients to provide the ssh window AND a file manzger view of the mm system. then you can double click a file to edit it directly on your pc, save puts it back on the mm syste. i use notepad++ as my windows editor for mm files
